who do you like here?

At 105? Going through some options, I really would have liked to add Gibson from Memphis as a slot weapon, kick returner, and devlopmental explosive running back - I see Cordarrelle Patterson in him, and I'd want to work him at RB

Looking at slot receiver options, don't love the safeties here (still looking at trading for a vet), looking at some edge players too.

The trade up for #214 was just to get Stephen off the roster to better fit Tevin Coleman on the roster.

Got it. When is 105 on the clock?

Gibson was chosen earlier in the 3rd

What edge players and safeties are left on the board? 

Pretty thin on safeties, likely none that come in and help from day one - I've got one player in mind as an edge guy that fits our mold

Safeties that have been selected:

McKinney
Winfield
Dugger
Chinn
Delpit
Davis
Wallace

Wallace was probably the last one that could come in and start right away. Burgess is still available and he’s not bad though! A lot of big boards have him ranked higher

At receiver I would love Gabriel Davis late 3rd round or 4th.  Kid can burn and has a great work ethic, awesome hands and just knows how to play the position.  Watch he will be picked in the next few selections before the Vikings.

 

 

 

These guys would be interesting as rush ends, Willekes is a dude and uses his hands very well but does have a little injury history.  Garvin could be a special player and is a special athlete no question.  Garvin did not have a great combine but on the field I think he has very good athletic ability and upside as a edge rusher.

Kenny Willekes Michigan State RS
Jonathan Garvin Miami FL JR
Khalid Kareem Notre Dame

 

 

 

These safeties are more hitters and strikers, potentially more a SS around the line of scrimmage, outside of Miller he comes from range with force and is good in space tackling and does not need to be around the line always. 

Chris Miller Baylor
Alohi Gilman Notre Dame RS JR
Antoine Brooks Jr Maryland
Tanner Muse Clemson RS

 

 

These two safeties are more FS types who have range in coverage and good ball skills, especially Blackmon who was a corner before.


Julian Blackmon Utah
JR Reed Georgia RS

 

Does depend on if Harrison Smith wants to play FS or SS.  If he does not mind moving back to more of a FS deep coverage role Gilman, Miller or Brooks would be great.  Brooks especially because he can play in the slot in dime and really well around the line of scrimmage, almost a smaller LB, Muse the say way better around the line of scrimmage.

Antonio Gandy-Golden Liberty SR WR 

I love him as well but I think we need some speed and deep threat ability and Gabriel Davis could be that.  But Gandy-Golden would be awesome, love his jump ball ability and overall hands, his highlight film is very impressive.

Could be the (Or one of the) steal(s) of the draft.   Someday, in the near future, we could be comparing him to the first round WR’s from this class. I just have a sneaky feeling that he will be that good.

I do like Muse for us, but definitely more as a cover back type, and likely more towards the round five-ish given that we don't necessarily have a need at LB.

Watching him more he could maybe with help be a safety in the league but yeah he is probably a OLB with coverage skills most likely.  Is much better around the line of scrimmage and blitzing than way back deep in coverage, but in the right system could be a SS possibly.   His combine was crazy impressive though compared to other safeties, only reason I would maybe entertain him working at safety for a little just to see.  Among safeties who participated at the combine was 2nd in the 40 at 4.41 and 7th in bench press with 20, very solid for a dude 6-2 227.

 

Brooks is similar to a guy who might be a OLB but is a little better in space, much better tackling in space but his deep coverage I question but around the line of scrimmage and in the slot he is very productive as a tackler.  

Currently and in real life the safety spot is a massive hole for the team, no real backups even much less starters in his simulation outside of one.
